With their 8 point advantage in the league table, Aarau fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against FC Schaffhausen.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting FC Schaffhausen have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 12-7-19 (win-draw-loss) from 38 matches.
